Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

I had use of a 996 MY02 3.6 6MT for nearly a decade.

Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Evening all!
After a lot of consideration I think I'm going to finally take the plunge and sell my beloved 996 for a 997 turbo. I have to sell my other 2 pride and joys to help fund the move, but I think it's the right call as having 3 cars is just unreasonable!!
I know there are a few of you who have made the same move, so just wondered if you would mind sharing your experience and or advice.
Thank in advance!
Gino
Hi Gino,
I went from a 996T to a 997T and have never regretted it.

996T to 997T
Before my 996T I had a 996C4 and that was a really big step up.
Do it, you won't regret it. :thumbs:
I had use of a 996 MY02 3.6 6MT for nearly a decade. I bought my own 911, a 997.1 TT MY08 Cab 6MT last year. The main differences will be obvious to most but these are the things that I personally felt. The 997 TT feels a lot bigger inside, is a lot faster. Sometimes it feels too fast to control on public roads. The power is not linear like a normally aspirated car and sometimes feels all or nothing. Options are important like adaptive seats and the sports buttton (I retrospectively fitted mine at an OPC along with a short shifter). The 997 handling is a big improvement as is the interior quality. The TT is a head turner and I get comments. It's mostly in storage and sometimes I think a GT3 with a normally aspirated engine and a more playful chassis might have been a better choice for my limited use. The TT is a childhood poster car and a dream realised. Don't get me wrong it's a stunning and complete car, it's also quite a special and expensive car which means less normal use and loads of pampering coupled with more worry about residuals. Hope this helps. I'm in Swindon and you are more than welcome to look at mine if it would help.
